Precision Shaft Machining Capabilities
This CNC turning center supports a full spectrum of heavy-duty and high-precision shaft machining operations:
Primary Operations: External cylindrical turning, internal boring, face finishing, single/multi-start threading, precision grooving, chamfering, and profiling.
Tolerance & Finish Goals: Capable of achieving IT6–IT7 dimensional tolerance grades and surface roughness down to Ra 0.4 um (application-dependent).
Target Workpieces: Motor shafts, drive/transmission shafts, hydraulic piston rods, machine spindles, and industrial roller shafts.
Machine Structure Design
Heavy-Duty Slanted Bed Structure: High-rigidity design provides direct chip drop into the conveyor, efficient heat dissipation, and ergonomic operator access.
Precision Guideway System: Extra-wide roller linear guideways or hardened box ways ensure rapid traverse rates up to 24 m/min with high dynamic rigidity.
Ergonomic Machine Layout: Features fully enclosed safety guarding, removable chip trays, accessible maintenance panels, and high-visibility LED work lighting..
Spindle System & Cutting Performance
High-Rigidity Spindle Unit: Supported by high-precision angular contact ball bearings for combined radial and axial loads.
Thermal Management: Built-in liquid cooling jacket limits spindle growth during high-RPM operations.
Power & Torque Delivery: High-torque main motor delivers high low-end torque for heavy roughing cuts and high speeds (up to 4500 rpm) for mirror finishing.
Precision Control & Thermal Stability
